Cause of death: the autopsy
57 days after the announced retirement, the feed was still live and complete (non-DoD records in Aug 2026 were 190,710 vs 207,160 a year earlier), so nothing forced anyone to move. Paid alternatives already exist (GovCon API at $39 a month, HigherGov, GovTribe). Scored 1.5 of 5.
The numbers
None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.
